Is acupuncture safe?
Acupuncture is one of the safest forms of treatment available. All needles are single-use and disposable, and come in a sterile pack. They are so fine that it is rare to draw any blood. Also, they are solid rather than hollow, so no substance can pass through them into your body, as is the case with the needles we are familiar with in the doctor's surgery.
Can I claim acupuncture treatment on my medical insurance?
Most insurance companies will agree to pay for acupuncture as a complementary therapy. It's a good idea to check with your insurers what kind of cover they will offer you.
I’ve got a cold. Should I come for my treatment?
Absolutely! Treatment helps rebalance the body and will help you get back on your feet sooner. The same applies whether you have hurt your foot or are feeling low and not up to much. Getting good energies flowing round the body is a great way to a speedy recovery. It’s also a good idea to call to arrange an extra treatment if something unexpected crops up so that your rebalanced energies can help life to get back to normal as soon as possible. Treatment after a long-haul journey from another time zone helps reduce the time you experience jet lag, as it helps to readjust your body's energies to this climate and time zone by bringing them back into balance.
